The Beauty Of Mauna Kea
by Keola Beamer
He lei keakea noho mai lā i ka mauna
Ka mauna kiʻekiʻe i luna kū kilakila
Kilakila no luna
No luna i ke ao
My friend and I would sometimes roam
The trails of Mauna Kea
And in the evening we’d come home
And see her standing there
The moon moves around her when she sleeps
The clouds stand beside her when she weeps
And I could be forgotten and a thousand miles away
And still I would recall the beauty of Mauna Kea
Now to any land you go
She will be with you
If you love her like I do
ʻO Mauna Kea
And I live in the city now
And I see different things
In the nights when I’m alone
She is in my dreams
The wind spins all around her when she wakes
The sun spreads its warmth across her face
And I could be forgotten and a thousand miles away
And still I would recall the beauty of Mauna Kea
Of Mauna Kea
Of Mauna Kea
ザ・ビューティ・オブ・マウナ・ケア
対訳:神保 滋
<解説>
1972年にジャック・デ・メロのプロデュースでリリースされたケオラ・ビーマーのアルバム「Hawaiian Slack Key Guitar in the Real Old Style」に収録。このアルバムがケオラのソロデビューとなる。
ケオラのオリジナルで、ハワイのコンテンポラリーフォークソング。チャントから始まるのが印象的なナンバーだ。
ブラザーズ・カジメロがカヴァーしているが、I をwe に、my をour にするなど歌詞をところどころ変えている。以下、聞き取ってみた。
Our friends and we have often roamed the trails of Mauna Kea
And in the evening we’d come home to see her standing there
The moon moves all around her when she sleeps
The clouds stand beside her when she weeps
And I could be forgotten and a thousand miles away
And still I would recall the beauty of Mauna Kea
Now to any land you go she will be with you
If you love her like I do
‘O Mauna Kea
Now we live in the city and we see different things
In the nights when I’m so alone she is in my dreams
Because the wind spins all around her when she wakes
The sun spreads it’s warmth across her face
And we could be forgotten and a thousand miles away
And still I would recall the beauty of Mauna Kea
Of Mauna Kea, of Mauna Kea
And still I would recall the beauty of Mauna Kea
